Beastmaster of the Ages

A few days later, Xiaoxiao arrived with a happy expression on her face. ”Good news!” she said.

”What?”

Tianming and Feiling were in the midst of practicing the sword when they stopped abruptly. Of course, it was the normal kind of practice that could be seen by others.

”Wu You said it can try. It’s going to devour the seven sigils without actually injuring your caelum,” Lin Xiaoxiao said.

”Alright!” Tianming couldn’t wait. He faced certain risks if he were to fight, even on Gladeus, and especially if he were to fall into a trap. Right now, he had the Ninedragon Imperial Tomb and Moran to protect him, so entering a life-and-death battle in the Skydome Battlefield was something he had to do.

”There’s also many top geniuses, experts, totemancers, and wondermancers in the Skydome Mundus. They’re all great opponents. And most importantly, the strongest divine wonder….” Tianming would be relieved of his only worry if the Archaionfiend was successful. Putting aside traces of certain negative energies, an arena like the wondersky realm was a good place.

”This might hurt,” the Archaionfiend said to Tianming.

”Just do it. You’re so long-winded.”

”Faker!” Wu You rolled its new eyes, its gaze slowly changing as it stared at the top of Tianming’s head.

Tianming felt a chill on the back of his neck. Feiling stood beside him, looking at the Archaionfiend. The blue glow in her eyes was a little brighter, making her appear extremely cold. If the Archaionfiend dared to harbor any malicious intentions, she would strike at once.

Closing his eyes, Tianming focused on his caelum. On the spine of his caelum were seven bumps from top to bottom, which were sigils from the wondersky realm. They were inscribed with negative energies, like mania and weakness. It was hard not to doubt the divine wonderians’ motives. He felt the Archaionfiend’s heavy breath. It was definitely a monster when it came to caeli. During the process, Tianming felt a sharp, stinging pain that was transmitted from his caelum to his vita, which hid in the Soul Tower, shivering. The fragility of his soul was clear.

”It’s done,” the Archaionfiend wearily said, returning to Xiaoxiao’s lifebound space.

”Thanks.” Tianming closed his eyes to observe his caelum within the heavenly locus formation. Sure enough, the seven sigils on its spine were gone. Although there were still slight traces, they were in the midst of being removed. He suddenly felt a sense of relief, as if he had been freed from some kind of nightmare.

”How do you feel?” Xiaoxiao asked with concern.

”Alive and well! I can start practicing again!” Tianming said, turning around.

”Hmph!” Pursing her lips, Xiaoxiao turned to Ling’er. ”I won’t disturb the two of you then. I’m going back to continue devouring those delicacies.”

You’re going to get fat! Tianming secretly cursed. He moved around a little, feeling much lighter. ”Come on, Ling’er, let’s continue to practice swords,” he said.

”No, you can look for someone to practice with in the wondersky realm.” Sensing the restlessness in Tianming, Feiling quickly ran away.

”Unable to stand a single blow… You’re no match for me!” Tianming contemptuously smiled.

Anyway, he wanted to enter the wondersky realm. ”I can go out there and do whatever I want without any worry. My body will remain safe on Gladeus. How will those who hide the news of Etherean Zhaohua’s death react to my sudden rise in fame?” That was what he wanted to know.

”There aren’t enough totemancers in the Infinitum Mundus. While divine wonderians dominate the Skydome Mundus, the ratio of totemancers in the population is much higher there. I must go and gain experience on simulacra!” With that in mind, Tianming no longer hesitated and entered the wondersky realm. The first thing he did was speak to Wudi about the Gladean Ruins. Then, he headed straight for the Skydome Battlefield.

......

After entering the enormous black octopus, Tianming stepped onto the Skydome Battlefield once more. ”Last time I was here, I made it to the seventh city. To the Skydome Mundus, it’s just a low-level city for those below the astral phase. So that won’t attract any real attention. I have to keep going.”

This time, he only brought Ying Huo and Meow Meow with him. His totems had already been revealed on the Skydome Battlefield and were no longer a secret, so this time he wanted to use both his totems and divine wonders. He had yet to try out the Xiaozhi Sword Art with his totems.

”If I keep going, I’m sure to meet experts and geniuses from fifth- and sixth-level nova source worlds in the Skydome Mundus, especially those from Skydome Wondrium. I heard that Skydome Wondrium is even larger than Ebonia! I know I’ll be able to learn the secret of simulacra if I humbly ask the experts for guidance!” Tianming wouldn’t mind humbling himself in order to improve his totems.

As soon as he entered the wondersky realm, he couldn’t avoid the playful wondersky fairy. It hadn’t been that long since his last visit, but weeping tears of joy, the wondersky fairy chattered on and on as it circled him. Tianming didn’t care to reply. With the Grand-Orient Sword in hand, he manifested his decapath era swords and entered the eighth city. He wanted to meet the experts of this mundus, so he wasted no time at all, slaughtering as he went. Although he was a first-astral orderan, he demonstrated the combat effectiveness of a seventh-astral orderan. The elders and seniors of clusters within the Skydome Mundus had become departed souls under his sword.

”Voidback City is the twenty-ninth city!” With that goal in mind, Tianming continued his slaughter. Because his age had been scanned and was reflected in the wondersky realm, he drew more and more attention as he gradually advanced to higher-level cities.

”A decabane? That’s rare? But nonsimulacrum?”

”Nonsimulacrum totems are rubbish! They’re no different from a penta-beastmaster. No matter how many lifebound beasts one has, they’re all useless.”

”But he’s very young!”

The Skydome Mundus was vast. As Tianming fought different opponents, those from their nova source worlds could also see him. The tenth city! The thirteenth city! Slaughtering a path through the cities was no challenge at all. Without the effect of the sigils, Tianming could fight as he pleased, using his opponents to practice his swordsmanship.

”Oh my goodness! He’s about to reach the seventeenth city.”

”Entering the seventeenth city in his thirties! How’s that possible? There must be a mistake!”

”Who’s the youngest person in the seventeenth city at the moment?”

”The hallowed shamaness from the sacred shamans! She’s cultivated for nearly two hundred years and is one of the Skydome Mundus’ top geniuses, an infinitum-class genius!”

”So his age must be wrong.”

Even so, Tianming caused a huge sensation. Although there was a risk that his grandparents would learn his real age, Tianming felt like they were close enough now. He didn’t think that confessing the truth would be an issue. After all, who said that the child born to their reincarnated son wasn’t considered a grandson?

His talent might even spread to the Infinitum Mundus. However, he wasn’t so afraid now that he was under the protection of the Hellstar Formation. With all the mindless slaughter, Tianming made such rapid progress that public attention came a bit later. When he finally entered the seventeenth city, he encountered the hallowed shamaness.

”Sacred shamans?”

When Tianming asked the wondersky fairy, he was told that they were the second largest clan, and the most powerful clan of totemancers in the Infinitum Mundus. Compared to the sacred shamans, the totemancers of Skyway Bistar were nothing.
